Gateway

The configuration of this screen has no effect if you are not using a
Gatekeeper or Gateway.
Use this screen to configure the gateway that is used to dial gateway
calls. You can configure a prefix or suffix that is sent to the
gatekeeper. This prefix identifies which gateway is used to dial a call
at a particular data rate. The gatekeeper then directs the call to the
gateway that is identified with a prefix.
In the following example, the ViewStation FX or VS4000 inserts the
prefix "90" before the number when dialing a 256K Gateway call.
The prefix tells the Gatekeeper which Gateway to use to dial the
256K call.

address on the following line. This information is available from your
network administrator. To have the ViewStation FX or VS4000
